Time for an unplugged performance

AI dummy.

You’ll be sorry! You will never get another straight man as good as me.

Hold on, playa, you’ll need someone to plug you into the mains for charging.

I don’t think so….without my hand , you’re rendered useless…

I wonder how good chatgpt would be at dummy dialogue.

So who is the dummy now?

With high tech…it could happen?

No more lap dance for you.

Have the dummy drink a glass of water whilst talking and let’s see what happens…(watch the sparks fly!)

The ventriloquist looks dummyfounded.

Yeah, but, he won’t have a leg to sit on!

My brother was a great ventriloquist until he got Parkinsons. Very sad, he was multi-talented. He not only did ventriloquism but magic, music and was a great artist.
